[QUOTE="gobiz, post: 3893618, member: 2921"] Thanks Tony, I just couldn't help myself because I saw the car on auction on ebay. There wasn't much interest because I think nobody believed the spec that the seller mentioned. In the end, I won the bidding and when I went to see the car I expected much worse...Amazingly the seller gave 1 years worth of MOT and 6 months road tax and even had the car insured so I can drive it away. And all the spec looks legit...car even drives pretty nice. Yes, absolutely agree with you. GTR aftermarket has advanced HUGELY over the past few years. 1. Performance Last time, 600hp was the ultimate goal. Very expensive to do. Some drag cars went over that but there were relatively few. Nowadays, most tuners can crank out 600hp quite easily. Most people are having 700hp+ and upwards. Even street cars can be made to have 700+ and still nice to drive nowadays. RB30 technology is advancing too. Lots of UK and Aussie guys having rb30 builds. Companies are starting to offer RB30 strokers eg. TRRacing- RB31 and soon [B]Spool RB34[/B]! :adore: Prices are much cheaper than OSG RB30s. 2. Aftermarket parts My car is 18 years old.... VERY OLD. Rust and general wear&tear is common. Even rubber seals for the rear windscreen is cracked and warped. But as Tony said, OEM or aftermarket parts for everything is easily available. Restoration will be FUN! [/QUOTE]
